Grey on Grey

While posting a sneak preview of this post on my Instagram and Facebook I mentioned how I am trying to make use of every last opportunity to wear all my winter clothes before the weather changes and it becomes impossible to even look at them!

This grey outfit screams winter and so it’s definitely a part of my mission to wear all my winter clothes at least once this season.

The coat weather isn’t going to last too long after all, definitely not in my place.

However, I am also preparing myself well in advance for the warm weather.

First of all, I am determined not to keep falling sick like last year because sickness is such a spoiler when you want to enjoy life! Although I cannot prevent what is coming (yes, I do believe in destiny to a large extent) but I know I can try. Health and fitness top my list of resolutions of the year and I am seriously working on them. Don’t get deceived by the occasional tempting pizza photographs on my social media, that is just a momentary pleasure and not my lifestyle any more. I have started jogging early morning and it leaves me so refreshed and energetic for the rest of the day, it’s wonderful. Jogging outdoors has always been my favorite form of work out. I also intend to get back to my strength training soon. I am so happy to be able to stick to my New Year Resolutions , at least I am trying to stick to the fitness part of it.

As easy as it may sound, it is quite difficult to get back to normal life schedule after a sickness. Though I didn’t get admitted in a hospital or anything, my sickness still took a toll on my life for quite some time, keeping me too weak to take interest in anything including blogging.

It feels great to be able to bounce back from that state and to be able to take control of my health and my life.

Therefore, health and fitness is not only going to be an integral part of my life, I am going to be talking about it a lot on my blog as well. Let me stick to my new fitness regime for a few months and soon I would love to share the results with you. I know I am not a qualified fitness trainer to give any tips but I can always share my own experiences, right?

And yes, experimentation never ends on style Over Coffee. They may be subtle at times and you may barely notice, but I am forever experimenting with my style, with editing photographs, with my writing, with everything. Wearing an all grey outfit for instance, is an experimentation on my part. I haven’t worn so much of grey that I have done this winter. Being from India I am so used to wearing and seeing vibrant colours around me that grey is the last colour I would even think of while picking my looks. I always get fascinated by the colour grey when I see a lot of my virtual blogger buddies from colder countries sporting this colour with so much of easy and confidence. I gave it a go this time and guess it worked!

I have also made a few more changes on the blog from this post onward. I will no longer be sharing the brand details of the clothes that I wear. It makes no sense because I repeat a lot of my clothes and some of them are pretty old and no longer available on the brands from where I bought them. Instead I will only be sharing the shopping links to similar products like I always do so that I can update the post if any of the products get sold out.

So, if you like my grey outfit of the day, I have linked similar products right below. Click on the product to check out the details.

That’s so great you were able to bounce back from your sickness and get back into enjoying blogging and other things you love. I have a hard time sometimes bouncing back. And it’s great you are doing jogging. I really wish I could do that but my knees would hate me unfortunately. HIking works for me.

I’m so glad you’re feeling better, hun. It really stinks to be sick, and like you, every time I am it’s a reminder to value my health. I can’t even tell you how much I love your look. I have a similiar coat, in black, and I’ve worn it for years. It’s warm, and goes with anything. Also, such a great idea to feature similar looks. Whenever I see cool fashion bloggers like I think “Now were in there world did she get that? I’d love to have one too” x
